Hi All, Hackaton is still in progress!
Here goes short history of events so far: * NexentaCore 2.0 Alpha2 first 'testing' ISO available - ON b97/b98 based. People reported successful installations, likely we will have official Alpha2 next week, as usual, upgradable with power of Debian tools - best in the world software packaging system which we all love some much * Slowly but surely we are making progress on porting latest Ubuntu LTS packages to the new shiny Nexenta Hardy repository: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# apt-cache stats Total package names : 6502 (260k) Normal packages: 3907 Pure virtual packages: 41 Single virtual packages: 509 Mixed virtual packages: 49 Missing: 1996 Yes, almost 4000 packages ALREADY ported! * Work on our new powerful ZFS and Nexenta Zones integrated AutoBuilder continuing. We are hoping to quickly add 10,000 more packages in the Alpha3-Beta1 time frame by simply running AutoBuilder against the rest of Ubuntu Universe/Multiverse * There was some discussion on possibility of creation new distribution Nexenta Desktop - but so far inconclusive. This opportunity is still open for developers - DO NOT MISS IT * There was some discussion on possiblity of creation Nexenta Server distribution - that is to mirror and match Ubuntu Server - the decision so far - YES! The majority of members of Nexenta community thinks this is a great idea and willing to put efforts into it. Initial User Guide on how Nexenta Server will look like available here: http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/ REMINDER: Hackaton still in progress - join and make a difference. _______________________________________________ gnusol-devel mailing list gnusol-devel@lists.sonic.net http://lists.sonic.net/mailman/listinfo/gnusol-devel
